$2.98 where I filled up at a Costco over in Auburn Hills, MI lol.
The government REALLLY needs to stop taxing the s**t out of gasoline though. I'm tired of paying an arm and a leg for something as stupid as gas. I bet prices would be within the $1 range if the government wasn't so greedy.

Drive on over toward east chicago or gary or something. Gas is a lot cheaper haha.... My father lives out on the border of MI and IN, and last time I was driving to chicago, my jaw dropped at the gas prices in east chicago. I'm talking a dollar less than anywhere else haha

I NEED a 55 gallon tank! This is why I've always loved the SJ more than the XJ!

Yeah, but the thought of a somewhat larger tank would be good. I get 12-14 city and It sucks having to fill up every 4 days.

I'd definitely agree with that. I live in both berrien county and oakland county and berrien is tons cheaper.
